| 1 | I tell the truth in Christ. I am not lying, my conscience testifying with me in the Holy Spirit, | Ro 1:9 2Co 1:23 2Co 11:31 2Co 12:19 Ga 1:20 Php 1:8 1Th 2:5 1Ti 2:7 1Ti 5:21 |
| 2 | that I have great sorrow and unceasing pain in my heart. | Ro 10:1 1Sa 15:35 Ps 119:136 Isa 66:10 Jer 9:1 Jer 13:17 Lam 1:12 Lam 3:48 Lam 3:49 Lam 3:51 Ezk 9:4 Lk 19:41-44 Php 3:18 Rev 11:3 |
| 3 | For I could wish that I myself were accursed from Christ for my brothers` sake, my relatives according to the flesh, | Ex 32:32 |
| 4 | who are Israelites; whose is the adoption, the glory, the covenants, the giving of the law, the service, and the promises; | Ro 9:6 Gn 32:28 Ex 19:3-6 Dt 7:6 Ps 73:1 Isa 41:8 Isa 46:3 Jn 1:47 |
| 5 | whose are the fathers, and of whom is Christ as concerning the flesh, who is over all, God, blessed forever. Amen. | Ro 11:28 Dt 10:15 |
| 6 | But it is not as though the word of God has come to nothing. For they are not all Israel, that are of Israel. | Ro 3:3 Ro 11:1 Ro 11:2 Nm 23:19 Isa 55:11 Mt 24:35 Jn 10:35 2Ti 2:13 Heb 6:17 Heb 6:18 |
| 7 | Neither, because they are Abraham`s seed, are they all children. But, "In Isaac will your seed be called." | Lk 3:8 Lk 16:24 Lk 16:25 Lk 16:30 Jn 8:37-39 Php 3:3 |
| 8 | That is, it is not the children of the flesh who are children of God, but the children of the promise are counted as a seed. | Ro 4:11-16 Ga 4:22-31 |
| 9 | For this is a word of promise, "At the appointed time I will come, and Sarah will have a son." | Gn 17:21 Gn 18:10 Gn 18:14 Gn 21:2 |
| 10 | Not only so, but Rebecca also conceived by one, by our father Isaac. | Ro 5:3 Ro 5:11 Lk 16:26 |
| 11 | For being not yet born, neither having done anything good or bad, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him who calls, | Ro 4:17 Ps 51:5 Eph 2:3 |
| 12 | it was said to her, "The elder will serve the younger." | Gn 25:22 Gn 25:23 2Sa 8:14 1Ki 22:47 |
| 13 | Even as it is written, "Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated." | Mal 1:2 Mal 1:3 |
| 14 | What will we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? Certainly not! | Ro 3:1 Ro 3:5 |
| 15 | For he said to Moses, "I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion." | Ro 9:16 Ro 9:18 Ro 9:19 Ex 33:19 Ex 34:6 Ex 34:7 Isa 27:11 Mic 7:18 |
| 16 | So then it is not of him who wills, nor of him who runs, but of God who has mercy. | Ro 9:11 Gn 27:1-4 Gn 27:9-14 Ps 110:3 Isa 65:1 Mt 11:25 Mt 11:26 Lk 10:21 Jn 1:12 Jn 1:13 Jn 3:8 1Co 1:26-31 Eph 2:4 Eph 2:5 Php 2:13 2Th 2:13 2Th 2:14 Tit 3:3-5 Jm 1:18 1Pe 2:9 1Pe 2:10 |
| 17 | For the scripture says to Pharaoh, "For this very purpose I caused you to be raised up, that I might show in you my power, and that my name might be published abroad in all the earth." | Ro 11:4 Ga 3:8 Ga 3:22 Ga 4:30 |
| 18 | So then, he has mercy on whom he desires, and he hardens whom he desires. | Ro 9:15 Ro 9:16 Ro 5:20 Ro 5:21 Eph 1:6 |
| 19 | You will say then to me, "Why does he still find fault? For who withstands his will?" | Ro 3:8 1Co 15:12 1Co 15:35 Jm 1:13 |
| 20 | But no, man, who are you who replies against God? Will the thing formed ask him who formed it, "Why did you make me like this?" | Ro 2:1 Mic 6:8 1Co 7:16 Jm 2:20 |
| 21 | Or hasn`t the potter a right over the clay, from the same lump to make one part a vessel for honor, and another for dishonor? | Ro 9:11 Ro 9:18 Pr 16:4 Isa 64:8 Jer 18:3-6 |
| 22 | What if God, willing to show his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much patience vessels of wrath made for destruction, | Ro 9:17 Ro 1:18 Ro 2:4 Ro 2:5 Ex 9:16 Ps 90:11 Pr 16:4 Rev 6:16 Rev 6:17 |
| 23 | and that he might make known the riches of his glory on vessels of mercy, which he prepared beforehand for glory, | Ro 2:4 Ro 5:20 Ro 5:21 Eph 1:6-8 Eph 1:18-8 Eph 2:4 Eph 2:7 Eph 2:10 Eph 3:8 Eph 3:16 Col 1:27 2Th 1:10-12 |
| 24 | us, whom he also called, not from the Jews only, but also from the Gentiles? | Ro 8:28-30 1Co 1:9 Heb 3:1 1Pe 5:10 Rev 19:9 |
| 25 | As he says also in Hosea, "I will call them `my people,` which were not my people; And her `beloved,` who was not beloved." | Hos 1:1 Hos 1:2 |
| 26 | "It will be that in the place where it was said to them, `You are not my people,` There will they be called `sons of the living God.`" | Hos 1:9 Hos 1:10 |
| 27 | Isaiah cries concerning Israel, "If the number of the children of Israel are as the sand of the sea, It is the remnant who will be saved; | Isa 1:1 |
| 28 | For He will finish the work and cut it short in righteousness, Because the LORD will make a short work upon the earth." | Isa 28:22 Isa 30:12-14 Dn 9:26 Dn 9:27 Mt 24:21 |
| 29 | As Isaiah has said before, "Unless the Lord of Hosts had left us a seed, We would have become like Sodom, And would have been made like Gomorrah." | Isa 1:9 Isa 6:13 Lam 3:22 |
| 30 | What will we say then? That the Gentiles, who didn`t follow after righteousness, attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith; | Ro 9:14 Ro 3:5 |
| 31 | but Israel, following after a law of righteousness, didn`t arrive at the law of righteousness. | Ro 9:30-32 Ro 10:2-4 Ga 3:21 Php 3:6 |
| 32 | Why? Because they didn`t seek it by faith, but as it were by works of the law. They stumbled over the stumbling stone; | Ro 4:16 Ro 10:3 Mt 19:16-20 Jn 6:27-29 Ac 16:30-34 1Jn 5:9-12 |
| 33 | even as it is written, "Behold, I lay in Zion a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense. And no one who believes in him will be put to shame." | Ps 118:22 Isa 8:14 Isa 8:15 Isa 28:16 Mt 21:42 Mt 21:44 1Pe 2:7 1Pe 2:8 |
